The Meißendorfer Teiche and Bannetzer Moor nature reserve covers around 900 hectares, of which around 350 hectares are around 80 fish ponds. These ponds were created at the end of the 19th century and developed into an important habitat for numerous animal and plant species. The area is particularly known for its rich bird life. Over 130 breeding bird species, including around 40 endangered species, have been recorded here. Notable species include cranes, sea eagles, ospreys, bitterns and kingfishers. The area is also an important resting and sleeping place for cranes during bird migration.
